SERVICES & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                         7 JUNE 2022


Finance
The current Lifeguard Agreement value is $1.44 million per annum plus CPI. The RFQ will
provide the opportunity for SLSQ to provide detailed responses in relation to the new
Agreement’s service level specifications and assessment criteria outlined in this report. Price
escalation due to current inflation pressures or other factors will be considered as part of the
assessment process and reported to Council.
Risks & Opportunities
Risks
The proposed RFQ process seeks to mitigate the risk of Council expending time and resources
undertaking a tender process which market sounding indicates will not elicit interest from
suppliers capable of providing lifeguard services to required service level standards.
Opportunities
To ensure Council receives value for money an RFQ will be issued to SLSQ and subsequently
evaluated against the assessment criteria outlined in this report. The RFQ will be assessed
under due diligence and probity and the assessment results will be formally reported to Council
at a future round of Council meetings. Council may also negotiate final terms, conditions and
costs with SLSQ as required to ensure that any subsequent contract results in value for money
for Council and the community.
